Edit: Ill be adding extra videos and Full games I post to this thread from Now on, as well as the older ones I have already posted.

I tried adding the 1959 Habs/leafs Final game 3, but for some reason, it cut off at 6 minutes. I am going to try to tinker with it to get that game up, as I know it was the on Demand game.

Ill also be throwing in a 1962 Leafs vs Blackhawks game, and several more as I find time. Takes almost all night to Upload a game though and uses a lot of resources so i will not be doing them once a Night or anything. Ill try to keep them coming though

Los Angeles Kings at Toronto Maple Leafs - Game 7 of The 1993 Campbell Conference Finals

1st period



2nd period



3rd period

Unfortunately, that person has now closed his YT account.

Luckily, though, there are still many other 'YouTubers' who have uploaded some great games, like this guy: MrVasilenkoK

Some of his gems:

1975-76 Super series; Boston Bruins vs. CSKA


IMHO the best game of the CSKA versus NHL series. Certainly better than the Philly game. The Soviets often look poor in their own zone (as they still did in the 1970s), but damn, the offense from Mikhailov-Maltsev*-Kharlamov line is sure fun to watch. Tretiak is brilliant, although he lets in an easy one in the 2nd period. Gilles Gilbert in the Boston goal is excellent too for the first 30 minutes or so. All in all, a nice contrast between two different styles of play.
* Maltsev had replaced Vladimir Petrov (injured?) after the Montreal game


1985-86 Super series; Quebec Nordiques vs. CSKA


The only weak game by CSKA during a very succesful tour (wins over the Oilers and the Canadiens by scores of 6-3 and 6-1, respectively). Viktor Tyumenev, instead of Larionov, centered Krutov and Makarov in this series.


USA vs. USSR, 1980, pre-Olympic game


Quite a different story than in Lake Placid, eh? 19-year old Krutov is brilliant.


And from Pavlov33ski (Miss Los & Albatross):

1968 Winter Olympics (Grenoble)

USSR vs. West Germany


USSR vs. Finland (not the full game)


USSR vs. USA


USSR vs. Sweden


USSR vs. Canada

We're sorry, but this video may not be available.

If this video was recently uploaded, it may still be processing.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Very nice work!

The video loads okay for me.

 

[Triffy]

Very nice! It works perfectly for me. This is the sort of stuff I've always wanted to see. So thanks a lot.

 

[pitseleh]

Oh man, thanks a ton, I'll find some time to watch this after I finish some work up. I'm very excited about checking it.

 

[Comparison Ford]

wow awesome vid man thanks so much

 

[seventieslord]

Wow, there's Regina product Fran Huck!

 

[Triffy]

Thornton, how does the game look in your eyes compared to the games played in the NHL during those days?

- I expected the tempo to be lower
- The goalies were better than I thought
- There was a huge difference in the physicality level between the teams
- The Canadians didn't seem to have any problems with the Soviets' speed
- Firsov played LW but was a right handed shooter. He was able to get in positions in which he could use his hard slapshot. He looked confident with the puck. Made a few mistakes. In overall, one of the best forwards in the game
- Starshinov looked better than I expected

 

[Phil Parent]

Plexiglass boards. All ladies near the boards were probably wearing pants.

 

[Inkling]

That's awesome, great video. Who's the announcer? Kind of sounds like Don Whittman but I'm not completely sure about that (haven't watched the whole thing yet).

Boston game added to this post. Currently putting up Pioneers: Gordie Howe

Gotta love the 1974 bruins/flyers. That takes me back a bit.

 

[Stonefly]

It was a great series. It's also a little sad to watch now as you can clearly see Orr's knee was bad enough by then that it was affecting his skating. Hopefully those that weren't fortunate enough to see Orr don't judge him on this series.
I have a Bruins/Leafs game from 71. If I ever get around to it I'll upload it. It really shows how he could play.

I would like that. I only have 2 games with Orr, both from that Flyer series, and I would love to get more.

I am currently uploading the Leafs vs Blackhawks 1962.

Unfortunately, the 76 CSSR vs USSR game had an error while loading and is unlikely to work, as did the 59 Habs/Leafs game 3 finals.

I'm not entirely disagreeing, but it didn't stop him from winning yet another Norris and the Art Ross again the next season, lol

He has more than a fair number of amazing flashes if you watch the whole game.

Also, Bobby is one of the few players in history (Mario too), that you can just watch highlight reels of and get an idea of their dominance.

He was still well beyond anyone else, no question. I was just pointing out that his skating ability shouldn't be judged on those games. Watching it back then I didn't really notice it but watching it now, the 71 game and then the 74 game it is glaringly obvious. He modified his stride to work through the pain of his knee.

I think I have the same game, they showed it on the NHL network right?

The Toronto crowd boos every time Orr touches the puck, it's great.

Yes that is the one. Orr gets his 100th assist in that game. I'm uploading it now. Not sure when it will be done...

 

[lextune]

Yep....a true NHL milestone moment; I'm sure many will be pleased by your effort to share.

 

[Trottier]

Oh, where have you gone, Ross Lonsberry?

There was a top-selling book in the 1970s called "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance". Long story short: a recurring theme throughout the book was the the author "chasing the ghost," trying feverishly to find and re-live his distant past.

Sampling these video last night, I could relate.

Thanks Thornton.

Usually takes about 5-6 hours if it is over 1GB. Sometimes longer. Then the processing approval takes 5-6 more hours

It still says it is transferring the file. It's been over 24 hours. It is almost a 4gb file though. Would it really take this long or is it frozen?
